So we agree that state-sponsored policing is problematic. I also agree that reform in the direction I advocate is not likely given the political climate. But widespread public acceptance is not a prerequisite for good ideas. Unconditional basic income is also probably outside the Overton window, as was universal healthcare at one point, and same-sex marriage and women's suffrage. Someone advocating for these ideas might have been seen as an impractical idealist, but the ideas are still worthy of discussion.
